Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. 1st Edition. Hardcover, Publisher : London, Hutchinson, (1993). FIRST EDITION, (Fine / Fine). Original Black Cloth Boards, Gilt Titles To Spine, 9.1/2" X 6.1/2" X 1.3/4", [x1] 686pp, (heavy book : 1.05 kg), Clean & Tight, (No Inscriptions), ISBN 0 09 174852 6. The Dust Jacket, (Design by Steve Snider / Illustration by Karen Bell), Is Clean & Bright, And Not Price Clipped, (£15.99 net In Uk Only). Translated by Antoina W. Bouis [Front (inside) Flap]. The publication of 'Children of The Arbat' in 1988 established Anatoli Rybakov as one of the most important Russian authors of the century. Now, in a long-awaited novel - the first since his magnificent international bestseller - Rybakov has written 'Fear': a stunning account of Stalins's purges. Rybakov brings alive a generation and a nation on the brink of sel-destruction with the story of Sasha Pankratov, a young man sent into Siberian exile after a flippant and inadvertantly impolotic remark in a school newspaper. No longer the idealistic youth youth of Rybakov's first novel, but a knowledgeable victim with hard-won wisdom, Sasha is released to make his way across a country where the mass arrests have continued, but the party faithful - the original creators of the Bolshevik Revolution - are now subject to arrest, torture, trial, and death. In his profound rendering of Stalin's mind and personality, Rybakov proves his extraordinary skills as both historian and craftsman. His depiction of the dynamics of terrorism is equally deft: the psychological molding of a once hopeful generation into fearful self-protective informers; and, even more devastating, Stalin conscious twisting of a self-serving but essential banal bureaucracy into a horde of prosecutorial demons whose zeal and inventivness surpass Torquemada's inquisitors. At once an epic saga, a chilling exposition of terrorism, and a deeply etched, unmatched portrait of Stalin, 'Fear' confirms Rybakov's stature among the classic historical writers of our time.
